Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Act Bravely for a Just Cause

Su Lu felt somewhat fortunate to have a protective brother who shielded her from Bo Jingshen; otherwise, if that person appeared before her.

Su Lu couldn’t be sure whether her emotions could remain as calm as they were now, whether this ethereal protective mechanism could still be like the still water, without pain.

Cheng You Ran had even muttered before, since he almost knelt outside the surgery room for Su Zhe, why hadn’t he come to the hospital to apologize over the past few days? Why hadn’t he tried to see Su Lu?

"He’s just feeling guilty!" Cheng Youran had said, "He probably just doesn’t know how to face you, huh? When you just came out of surgery and were still unconscious, he looked utterly heartbroken. Why is he nowhere to be seen now that you’re awake? Does he feel guilty? Is he too scared to meet you?"

"Stop being angry," Su Lu advised her softly, pausing before quietly adding, "It’s better that he didn’t come. If he had, I wouldn’t know... how to cope."

"Hmph, why bother coping?" Cheng Youran retorted angrily, "I would cope with it myself, how would I cope? Just kick him out straight away."

What they didn’t know was that Bo Jingshen didn’t want to avoid coming; he simply couldn’t.

The matter started a few days ago.

Shen Xun had obtained the blood sample and almost immediately sent it for comparison.

Jingshen, having been pulled into this situation out of nowhere and specifically by Shen Xun he had called, couldn’t just shrug it off, especially considering his many years of fixation on Shen Xun. He knew in his heart and mind, so Jingshen stayed with him the whole time.

The testing agency charged an extra fee for urgency, and the results would soon be available.

Jingshen accompanied Shen Xun outside, casually lighting a cigarette.

Shen Xun, not much of a smoker, took the cigarette offered by Jingshen and lit it as well.

"The results will be out soon," Shen Xun said, holding the burning cigarette between his fingers, unable to resist rubbing his hands together, "Why do I feel a bit nervous?"
